I have had the Alpha 40 RTF for about 5 months and it was my first gas plane.
The Alpha 40 RTF is not a gas plane. It is "Glow" or "Nitro".
The reason we distinguish is because we do fly gasoline engine planes in this sport so to avoid confusion we call Glow/Nitro engine planes Glow or Nitro and gasoline engine planes Gas.
